A Light Hearted Look at the Universe

[Benggolf2]

This is clever and for those who do not recognize the name at the end, the singer, Eric Idle is one of the Monty Python crew. The song can also be found on the CD Monty Python Sings.

The piece originated in Australia: it is so cleverly done most people do not realize how much information is being shared.

Eric Idle is a genius, as are several of the Monty Python crew.

This piece is fresh out of The Meaning of Life (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085959/) circa 1983. You should rent the movie, it's a hoot.

I have the complete set of episodes of Flying Circus, 40-odd IIRC. Those guys raised the bar high enough so that there are still shitcoms out there copying their stuff, 40 years on. The movies were also breaking barriers, irreverent as anything before or since....

MR. CHEEKY: Ah, no. Freedom.



JAILER: Hmm?



NISUS: What?



MR. CHEEKY: Eh, freedom for me. They said I hadn't done anything,
so I could go free and live on an island somewhere.



NISUS: Oh. Oh, well, that's jolly good. Well, off you go, then.



MR. CHEEKY: Naa, I'm only pulling your leg. It's crucifixion, really.
